Changes since the last public release (1.4.1):

version 1.5.0beta01 [February 7, 2010]
  Moved declaration of png_struct into private pngstruct.h and png_info
    into pnginfo.h

version 1.5.0beta02 [February 7, 2010]
  Reverted to original png_push_save_buffer() code.

version 1.5.0beta03 [February 8, 2010]
  Return allocated "old_buffer" in png_push_save_buffer() before
    calling png_error().
  Updated configure script to use SO number 15.

version 1.5.0beta04 [February 9, 2010]
  Removed malformed "incomplete struct declaration" of png_info from png.h

version 1.5.0beta05 [February 12, 2010]
  Removed PNG_DEPSTRUCT markup in pngstruct.h and pnginfo.h, and undid the
    linewrapping that it entailed.
  Revised comments in pngstruct.h and pnginfo.h and added pointers to
    the libpng license.
  Changed PNG_INTERNAL to PNG_EXPOSE_INTERNAL_STRUCTURES
  Removed the cbuilder5 project, which has not been updated to 1.4.0.

version 1.4.1beta12 and 1.5.0beta06 [February 14, 2010]
  Fixed type declaration of png_get_chunk_malloc_max() in pngget.c (Daisuke
    Nishikawa)

version 1.5.0beta07 [omitted]

version 1.5.0beta08 [February 19, 2010]
  Changed #ifdef PNG_NO_STDIO_SUPPORTED to #ifdef PNG_NO_CONSOLE_IO_SUPPORTED
    wherever png_snprintf() is used to construct error and warning messages.
  Noted in scripts/makefile.mingw that it expects to be run under MSYS.
  Removed obsolete unused MMX-querying support from contrib/gregbook
  Added exported png_longjmp() function.
  Removed the AIX redefinition of jmpbuf in png.h
  Added -D_ALLSOURCE in configure.ac, makefile.aix, and CMakeLists.txt
    when building on AIX.

version 1.5.0beta09 [February 19, 2010]
  Removed -D_ALLSOURCE from configure.ac, makefile.aix, and CMakeLists.txt.
  Changed the name of png_ptr->jmpbuf to png_ptr->png_jmpbuf in pngstruct.h

version 1.5.0beta10 [February 25, 2010]
  Removed unused gzio.c from contrib/pngminim gather and makefile scripts
  Removed replacement error handlers from contrib/gregbook.  Because of
    the new png_longjmp() function they are no longer needed.

version 1.5.0beta11 [March 6, 2010]
  Removed checking for already-included setjmp.h from pngconf.h
  Fixed inconsistent indentations and made numerous cosmetic changes.
  Revised the "SEE ALSO" style of libpng.3, libpngpf.3, and png.5

version 1.5.0beta12 [March 9, 2010]
  Moved "#include png.h" inside pngpriv.h and removed "#include png.h" from
    the source files, along with "#define PNG_EXPOSE_INTERNAL_STRUCTURES"
    and "#define PNG_NO_PEDANTIC_WARNINGS" (John Bowler).
  Created new pngdebug.h and moved debug definitions there.

version 1.5.0beta13 [March 10, 2010]
  Protect pngstruct.h, pnginfo.h, and pngdebug.h from being included twice.
  Revise the "#ifdef" blocks in png_inflate() so it will compile when neither
    PNG_USER_CHUNK_MALLOC_MAX nor PNG_SET_CHUNK_MALLOC_LIMIT_SUPPORTED
    is defined.
  Removed unused png_measure_compressed_chunk() from pngpriv.h and libpngpf.3
  Moved the 'config.h' support from pngconf.h to pngpriv.h
  Removed PNGAPI from the png_longjmp_ptr typedef.
  Eliminated dependence of pngtest.c on the private pngdebug.h file.
  Make all png_debug macros into *unterminated* statements or
    expressions (i.e. a trailing ';' must always be added) and correct
    the format statements in various png_debug messages.

version 1.5.0beta14 [March 14, 2010]
  Removed direct access to png_ptr->io_ptr from the Windows code in pngtest.c
  Revised Makefile.am to account for recent additions and replacements.
  Corrected CE and OS/2 DEF files (scripts/png*def) for symbols removed and
    added ordinal numbers to the Windows DEF file and corrected the duplicated
    ordinal numbers on CE symbols that are commented out.
  Added back in export symbols that can be present in the Windows build but
    are disabled by default.
  PNG_EXPORT changed to include an 'ordinal' field for DEF file generation.
    PNG_CALLBACK added to make callback definitions uniform.  PNGAPI split
    into PNGCAPI (base C form), PNGAPI (exports) and PNGCBAPI (callbacks),
    and appropriate changes made to all files.  Cygwin builds re-hinged to
    allow procedure call standard changes and to remove the need for the DEF
    file (fixes build on Cygwin).
  Enabled 'attribute' warnings that are relevant to library APIs and callbacks.
  Changed rules for generation of the various symbol files and added a new
    rule for a DEF file (which is also added to the distribution).
  Updated the symbol file generation to stop it adding spurious spaces
    to EOL (coming from preprocessor macro expansion).  Added a facility
    to join tokens in the output and rewrite *.dfn to use this.
  Eliminated scripts/*.def in favor of libpng.def; updated projects/visualc71
    and removed scripts/makefile.cygwin.
  Made PNG_BUILD_DLL safe: it can be set whenever a DLL is being built.
  Removed the include of sys/types.h - apparently unnecessary now on the
    platforms on which it happened (all but Mac OS and RISC OS).
  Moved the Mac OS test into pngpriv.h (the only place it is used.)

version 1.5.0beta15 [March 17, 2010]
  Added symbols.chk target to Makefile.am to validate the symbols in png.h
    against the new DEF file scripts/symbols.def.
  Changed the default DEF file back to pngwin.def.
  Removed makefile.mingw.
  Eliminated PNG_NO_EXTERN and PNG_ALL_EXTERN

version 1.5.0beta16 [April 1, 2010]
  Made png_text_struct independent of PNG_iTXt_SUPPORTED, so that
    fields are initialized in all configurations.  The READ/WRITE
    macros (PNG_(READ|WRITE)_iTXt_SUPPORTED) still function as
    before to disable code to actually read or write iTXt chunks
    and iTXt_SUPPORTED can be used to detect presence of either
    read or write support (but it is probably better to check for
    the one actually required - read or write.)
  Combined multiple png_warning() calls for a single error.
  Restored the macro definition of png_check_sig().

version 1.5.0beta17 [April 17, 2010]
  Documented the fact that png_set_dither() was disabled since libpng-1.4.0.
  Reenabled png_set_dither() but renamed it to png_set_quantize() to reflect
    more accurately what it actually does.  At the same time, renamed
    the PNG_DITHER_[RED,GREEN_BLUE]_BITS macros to
    PNG_QUANTIZE_[RED,GREEN,BLUE]_BITS.
  Added some "(long)" typecasts to printf calls in png_handle_cHRM().
  Freeze build-time only configuration in the build.
    In all prior versions of libpng most configuration options
    controlled by compiler #defines had to be repeated by the
    application code that used libpng.  This patch changes this
    so that compilation options that can only be changed at build
    time are frozen in the build.  Options that are compiler
    dependent (and those that are system dependent) are evaluated
    each time - pngconf.h holds these.  Options that can be changed
    per-file in the application are in png.h.  Frozen options are
    in the new installed header file pnglibconf.h (John Bowler)
  Removed the xcode project because it has not been updated to work
    with libpng-1.5.0.

version 1.5.0beta18 [April 17, 2010]
  Restored the ability to include optional pngusr.h
  Moved replacements for png_error() and png_warning() from the
    contrib/pngminim project to pngerror.c, for use when warnings or
    errors are disabled via PNG_NO_WARN or PNG_NO_ERROR_TEXT, to avoid
    storing unneeded error/warning text.
  Updated contrib/pngminim project to work with the new pnglibconf.h
  Added some PNG_NO_* defines to contrib/pngminim/*/pngusr.h to save space.

version 1.5.0beta19 [April 24, 2010]
  Added PNG_{READ,WRITE}_INT_FUNCTIONS_SUPPORTED.  This allows the functions
    to read and write ints to be disabled independently of PNG_USE_READ_MACROS,
    which allows libpng to be built with the functions even though the default
    is to use the macros - this allows applications to choose at app build
    time whether or not to use macros (previously impossible because the
    functions weren't in the default build.)
  Changed Windows calling convention back to __cdecl for API functions.
    For Windows/x86 platforms only:
      __stdcall is no longer needed for Visual Basic, so libpng-1.5.0 uses
      __cdecl throughout (both API functions and callbacks) on Windows/x86
      platforms.
  Replaced visualc6 and visualc71 projects with new vstudio project
  Relaxed the overly-restrictive permissions of some files.

version 1.5.0beta20 [April 24, 2010]
  Relaxed more overly-restrictive permissions of some files.

version 1.5.0beta21 [April 27, 2010]
  Removed some unwanted binary bytes and changed CRLF to NEWLINE in the new
    vstudio project files, and some trivial editing of some files in the
    scripts directory.
  Set PNG_NO_READ_BGR, PNG_NO_IO_STATE, and PNG_NO_TIME_RFC1123 in
    contrib/pngminim/decoder/pngusr.h to make a smaller decoder application.

version 1.5.0beta22 [April 28, 2010]
  Fixed dependencies of GET_INT_32 - it does not require READ_INT_FUNCTIONS
    because it has a macro equivalent.
  Improved the options.awk script; added an "everything off" option.
  Revised contrib/pngminim to use the "everything off" option in pngusr.dfa.

version 1.5.0beta23 [April 29, 2010]
  Corrected PNG_REMOVED macro to take five arguments.
    The macro was documented with two arguments (name,ordinal), however
    the symbol checking .dfn files assumed five arguments.  The five
    argument form seems more useful so it is changed to that.
  Corrected PNG_UNKNOWN_CHUNKS_SUPPORTED to PNG_HANDLE_AS_UNKNOWN_SUPPORTED
    in gregbook/readpng2.c
  Corrected protection of png_get_user_transform_ptr. The API declaration in
    png.h is removed if both READ and WRITE USER_TRANSFORM are turned off
    but was left defined in pngtrans.c
  Added logunsupported=1 to cause pnglibconf.h to document disabled options.
    This makes the installed pnglibconf.h more readable but causes no
    other change.  The intention is that users of libpng will find it
    easier to understand if an API they need is missing.
  Include png_reset_zstream() in png.c only when PNG_READ_SUPPORTED is defined.
  Removed dummy_inflate.c from contrib/pngminim/encoder
  Removed contrib/pngminim/*/gather.sh; gathering is now done in the makefile.

version 1.5.0beta24 [May 7, 2010]
  Use bitwise "&" instead of arithmetic mod in pngrutil.c calculation of the
    offset of the png_ptr->rowbuf pointer into png_ptr->big_row_buf.
  Added more blank lines for readability.

version 1.5.0beta25 [July 12, 2010]
  In pngpread.c: png_push_have_row() add check for new_row > height
  Removed the now-redundant check for out-of-bounds new_row from example.c

version 1.5.0beta26 [June 18, 2010]
  In pngpread.c: png_push_process_row() add check for too many rows.

version 1.5.0beta27 [June 18, 2010]
  Removed the check added in beta25 as it is now redundant.

version 1.5.0beta28 [June 19, 2010]
  Rewrote png_process_IDAT_data to consistently treat extra data as warnings
    and handle end conditions more cleanly.
  Removed the new (beta26) check in png_push_process_row().

version 1.5.0beta29 [June 21, 2010]
  Revised scripts/options.awk to work on Sunos (but still doesn't work)
  Added comment to options.awk and contrib/pngminim/*/makefile to try nawk.

version 1.5.0beta30 [June 22, 2010]
  Stop memory leak when reading a malformed sCAL chunk.

version 1.5.0beta31 [June 26, 2010]
  Revised pngpread.c patch of beta28 to avoid an endless loop.
  Removed some trailing blanks.

version 1.5.0beta32 [June 26, 2010]
  Removed leftover scripts/options.patch and scripts/options.rej

version 1.5.0beta33 [July 6, 2010]
  Made FIXED and FLOATING options consistent in the APIs they enable and
    disable.  Corrected scripts/options.awk to handle both command line
    options and options specified in the .dfa files.
  Changed char *msg to PNG_CONST char *msg in pngrutil.c
  Make png_set_sRGB_gAMA_and_cHRM set values using either the fixed or
    floating point APIs, but not both.
  Reversed patch to remove error handler when the jmp_buf is stored in the
    main program structure, not the png_struct.
    The error handler is needed because the default handler in libpng will
    always use the jmp_buf in the library control structure; this is never
    set.  The gregbook code is a useful example because, even though it
    uses setjmp/longjmp, it shows how error handling can be implemented
    using control mechanisms not directly supported by libpng.  The
    technique will work correctly with mechanisms such as Microsoft
    Structure Exceptions or C++ exceptions (compiler willing - note that gcc
    does not by default support interworking of C and C++ error handling.)
  Reverted changes to call png_longjmp in contrib/gregbook where it is not
    appropriate.  If mainprog->jmpbuf is used by setjmp, then png_longjmp
    cannot be used.
  Changed "extern PNG_EXPORT" to "PNG_EXPORT" in png.h (Jan Nijtmans)
  Changed "extern" to "PNG_EXTERN" in pngpriv.h (except for the 'extern "C" {')

version 1.5.0beta34 [July 12, 2010]
  Put #ifndef PNG_EXTERN, #endif around the define PNG_EXTERN in pngpriv.h
